Homer Paul Stands Sr.

OGLALA — As Native Americans, we exchange names and shake hands and somehow connect our relationships with each other, but if you mention Homer Stands, the immediate icon that will come to mind will be Rodeo. As a Native American cowboy, he was a legend in his own time, an icon for the Native Americans and one of the greatest showmen in rodeo. He represented Native Americans with the likes of Casey Tibbs and Jim Shoulders.

He was on a mission to put the Native Americans on the front page as an all-around cowboy and did it with no shame. He was one not to follow the crowd, because he stood out alone and made it to the Rodeo Cowboy Hall of Fame. The rewards were many, and his rodeo pictures are on postcards and hanging on the walls of many establishments, and he won countless numbers of championship rodeo buckles, and the stories go on about his greatness, but he was a humble Native American and gained no riches. He only wanted to put the Native Americans in the front seat of those who care. With all the fame and notoriety, his greatest joy in life was his family. He was aware of the needs and wants of each one, proportioning his love and attention accordingly. Such was the man who lived to be 86 years old. He is survived by his sister, Theresa Blacksmith of Oglala, S.D.; his sons and daughters, Loretta Zimiga of Vermillion, Henrietta Nelson of Vermillion, Frederick Stands of Oglala, Homer Stands II of Minneapolis, Minn., Hazel Stands of Omaha, Neb., Harry Stands of Oglala, Hubert Stands of Oklahoma City, Okla., Victoria Castaway of Sioux Falls, Lyle Stands of Oregon, and Hope Tirado of Sioux City, Iowa; and numerous nieces, nephews and grandchildren. His wife, four sons and one daughter await him in the spirit world.

Homer Paul Stands Sr., 86, Oglala, died Wednesday, Sept. 19, 2001, at Rapid City Regional Hospital.

A two-night wake will begin at 1 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 22, at Brother Rene Hall in Oglala.

Services will be at 10 a.m. Monday, Sept. 24, at the hall, with the Rev. Agnes Tyon, the Rev. Ben Tyon and the Rev. Leo American Horse officiating.

Burial will be at St. Peter's Episcopal cemetery in Oglala.

Sioux Funeral Home of Pine Ridge is in charge of arrangements.
